Shein Women's Paisley Print Maxi Skirt
At a glance
Summary
Shein Women's Paisley Print Maxi Skirt scores 1/100. Independent lab testing by Greenpeace (2025) detected heavy metal antimony (Sb) and formaldehyde. Formaldehyde is a known carcinogen used as a textile finish — it prevents wrinkling but leaches onto skin during wear. Antimony is a toxic metalloid that can irritate skin and damage internal organs. Both chemicals pose health risks through direct skin contact, especially in a long skirt with large skin coverage area.
